All Zonal Railways
Commercial Circular No. 14 of 2015
Sub: Irregularity in booking -- Modification of tickets on ARP date.
As per extant provisions, postponement or preponement of journey on the confirmed or RAC or waitlisted ticket shall be allowed in the same class and for the same destination or any higher class by the same train or by any other train for any subsequent days, subject to condition that the ticket is surrendered during the working hours of reservation office and at least forty eight hours before the scheduled departure of the train in which originally booked.
2. Cases have come to the notice wherein the reservation staff modify previously
generated PNRs on the ARP date so as to obtain confirmed tickets. As the journey and passenger details are auto populated on the modification form by entering PNR number only, modified tickets for opening ARP were generated in less time. Due to modification of tickets at the time of opening of counter, the passengers standing in queues are not able to get confirmed tickets which leads to complaints.
3. In view of the above, Board desires that the facility of journey modification (preponement and postponement) may be blocked/disabled during the first hour of the opening of ARP with immediate effect.
4. Necessary instructions may be issued to all concerned.

REMOVING GALLSTONES NATURALLY:Coutesy Dr.G.K.Advani
Pass this on .........and if someone finds that it works, please feedback the results!
REMOVING GALLSTONES NATURALLYThis is a very useful piece of information, that you may have not received before.This is very true and it works.You can 'google' Dr Lai Chiu-Nan to find out more about her and the feedbacks of this treatment.Pictures first, explanation and procedure follows:
1. Liver
2. Common Bile Duct
3. Gallstones
4. Gallbladder
REMOVING GALLSTONES NATURALLY
by Dr Lai Chiu-Nan
It has worked for many. If it works for you please pass
on the good news. Chiu Nan is not charging for it,
so we should make it free for everyone.
Your reward is when someone, through
your word of mouth, benefits from the regime.
Gallstones may not be everyones' concern.
But they should be because we all have them.
Moreover, gallstones may lead to cancer.
"Cancer is never the first illness," Chiu Nan points out. "
Usually, there are a lot of other problems
leading to cancer.
In my research in China , I came across some
materials which say that people with cancer
usually have stones. We all have gallstones.
It's a matter of big or small, many or few.
One of the symptoms of gallstones is a feeling
of bloatedness after a heavy meal. You feel like
you can't digest the food. If it gets more serious,
you feel pain in the liver area."
So if you think you have gallstones, Chiu Nan offers
the following method to remove them naturally.
The treatment is also good for those with a weak liver, because the liver and gallbladder
are closely linked.
Regimen:1. For the first five days, take four glasses
of apple juice every day, or eat four or five apples,
whichever you prefer. Apple juice softens
the gallstones. During the five days, eat normally.
2. On the sixth day, take no dinner.
3. At 6 PM, take a teaspoon of Epsom salt (magnesium sulphate) with a glass of warm water.
4. At 8 PM, repeat the same. Magnesium sulphate opens the gallbladder ducts.
5. At 10 PM, take half cup olive oil (or sesame oil) with half cup fresh lemon juice.
Mix it well and drink it. The oil lubricates the stones to ease their passage.
P.S: 1 cup = 250ml, 1/2 cup lemon juice = 3 lemons (approx.)
The next morning, you will find green stones in your stools. "Usually they float," Chiu Nan notes. "You might want to count them. I have had peoplewho passed 40, 50 or up to 100 stones. Very many."
"Even if you don't have any symptoms of gallstones, you still might have some stones.
It's always good to give your gall bladder a clean-up every now and then.
PASS THIS ON AND YOU MAY HELP OTHERS!
